26th November results

21 players encountered a quiet weather morning but a course still saturated in many places. Both Melvin Cannell and John Napier returned 17 points, John taking first on countback.

Bill Hardcastle, our antipodean TAM, suffered a mild stroke playing the 9th. Thankfully, after an afternoon of checks at BGH, he was allowed home. Thanks to his playing partners and two of the ground staff who had Bill in the clubhouse within 5 minutes of him taking poorly.

(Wishing you a full recovery, Bill. Take care. Love and best wishes, David & Katrina )
